Oh ren fab idea with the mobile hairdresser! And well done on Ava and self settling H just gets fed to sleep and prob always will (till he's 18 or so anyway )
Bon - when are you going to docs? Hope you got some sleep last night
Got a stinking cold, alll the kids do too.
But upside is school hols start today DH is a teacher. I'm off to Tassie (I'm from there originally) on Tuesday just with H, until Sunday. Have a friends wedding. Will be so much fun and so nice just with Henry! Looking foward to a break. Can spend time just with him which will be lovely.
He slept 5.5 hours last night straight V happy with that. If he does that every night then I'm a happy mumma. Then went down after feed/burp/change till 5.30 (takes an hour to do all that!). He's been getting into a bit of a havit (touch wood) of going back down about 7ish till about 8/9 which is great - means I can get organised to head out of the house then which we do every day. He generally only does 1 sleep cycle during the day though......actually should check on him.....40 mins about up!
Well, I'm over this night time waking thing! Max went from going anywhere between 4-6 hours (with one 8 hour thrown in for good measure!) to now only sleeping 3 hour stretches at night. I'm getting really tired again, only now he doesn't sleep as long during the day (especially at night) so I can't really nanna nap.
Tried him on formula last night for first time to see if it filled him up a bit more, but no good. Oh well...
On another note, we had his immunisations today. Poor kid Actually, he was really good. Cried a fair bit when they got done, but I stuck him on the boob and he settled down after a few mins and then slept a couple of hours. Has been a little more sooky than usual this arvo, but is generally still pretty happy. Phew!
Bon - Hope doc visit went ok and you've got some answers abotu Nixon's poor sleeping.
Soph - Don't know how you do it, getting out of the house every day so early in the day! I guess by number 3 you've probably become an expert though!
Birthday party for me tomorrow night - yay! Only I don't think I'll be drinking, after Max's recent performance with bottles. Ah well, there's worse things in the world. Will still be a good night.
Soph - have a great time in Tassie! I would love to go there.... one day.... ! Enjoy the wedding.
It was DH's idea to get a mobile hairdresser out to our house! He's an ideas man isn't he? hehe I got about 15cm off the length of my hair and got layers in. It's been 4mths since I had a haircut I think!! It was about time. Feels so light and healthy now. Only cost $30 too!! And I've booked her in for my foils in 3wks time.... didn't want to get them done today incase she didn't seem very good!! but I like her. Mobile hairdressers are cheaper than salon ones'!!!
Gypsy- don't worry, most nights DD sleeps 4-6hrs straight but a few nights there she was waking every 2-3hrs I was sooo tired!!! I find there are good nights and bad nights.... just try and stick it out... growth spurts and developmental stages affect their sleep big time and I don't think there is much we can do about it just ride with it for now.... I hope you get some sleep tonight
Well, I'm STILL having issues with Breastfeeding My L nipple is flat and DD just doesn't always want to feed from it!! It's so hard when out in public she cracks up big time so to make it smoother bfeeding in public I just feed from R side.... she feeds ok from L side when i'm lying down at home but not in the cradle position.....still trying to figure it out what is wrong with her not wanting it now and then i have to express to ensure my supply stays up!!!!
Ren - I have flat nipples too. I found with Ned and Henry that they both preferred one side and found the other really hard and like you would just feed from the 'good' side in public. But fter a while when Ned got bigger (and starting tobe with H too) the bad side got better and better and nowwe almost all prefer it! So keep persisting, it will gt easier - you're doing an awesome job!
Gypsy - the sleep thing always changes and hopefully for all of us good nights will start to outweigh the bad.
H just gets fed to sleep and prob always will (till he's 18 or so anyway
)
